Melville, let's talk turkey. Мелвилл, давайте начистоту.

But," as Melville put it, "they dreaded cannibals." "Увы, - добавил Мелвилл, - они испугались каннибалов".

Herman Melville is one of my favorite writers. Герман Мелвилл — один из моих любимых писателей.

That Walt Whitman and Mark Twain, Herman Melville, Henry James, and John Dos Passos had lived here, that Enescu, Brancusi, or Eugen Ionesco had been successful here in no way raised my hopes. То, что здесь жили Уолт Уитмен и Марк Твен, Герман Мелвилл, Генри Джеймс и Джон Дос Пассос, что здесь добились успеха Энеску, Бранкузи и Эжен Ионеско, нисколько не прибавляло мне надежд.

Herman Melville, who used this story as research for "Moby Dick," wrote years later, and from dry land, quote, "All the sufferings of these miserable men of the Essex might in all human probability have been avoided had they, immediately after leaving the wreck, steered straight for Tahiti. Герман Мелвилл, который использовал эту историю как материал для романа "Моби Дик", годы спустя, находясь на твёрдой земле, написал: "Несчастные матросы Эссекса могли бы со всей вероятностью избежать выпавших им страданий, если бы, покинув обломки корабля, они взяли курс на Таити".

The title harks back to the book of Job and recalls Herman Melville's Moby Dick. Его название отсылает нас к книге Иова и заставляет вспомнить «Моби Дика» Германа Мелвилла.

But perhaps if they'd been able to read their fears more like a scientist, with more coolness of judgment, they would have listened instead to the less violent but the more likely tale, the story of starvation, and headed for Tahiti, just as Melville's sad commentary suggests. Быть может, если бы они смогли прочитать свои страхи с холодной объективностью учёного, они бы поверили в менее кровожадный, но более правдоподобный сюжет медленной смерти и отправились бы прямиком на Таити, как желал того позже Мелвилл.

What is translation in context on PROMT.One

The “Contexts” section on PROMT.One is your translation-in-context tool that helps you find real examples of how words and phrases are used. Just enter a word and the service will show its translation in context — sentences from bilingual sources where this word is used together with its translation into the target language. This helps you understand subtle shades of meaning and correct usage in speech, whether it is a rare term or a common everyday phrase.

Millions of usage examples from real texts

Millions of translation examples are collected automatically from already translated texts: documents, websites, books, movie dialogues and more. Thanks to this, you can see a word in different situations — from formal business style to everyday colloquial speech. For convenience, the results can be filtered by a specific translation or topic, and you can also search within the examples found to quickly focus on the context you need.

How translation in context helps you learn a language

By using the “Contexts” section, you can effectively expand your vocabulary. The service clearly shows how idioms, phrasal verbs and polysemantic words are translated in different contexts. This makes language learning easier: you remember new words together with their real usage and immediately see correct translations in authentic, living language.
